they give about the same drop, but the spring rates are different. G springs are way softer than the Z springs I wanted

255/35 is a smaller tire than oem tire size

265/35 60mph = 59.1
275/35 60mph = 59.7
255/40 60mph = 60.7

are all closer to oem tire size eithier slightly larger or almost equal, and closer to 60mph rating.
at 60mph with 255/35 your actuall going 58.5mph

I see... But I don't want to run same OEM because when I get wheels more than likely 19s I'd like to swap them over..

Also aren't oem rears 245 - 40?

I don't think the NT05 come In 40 series at that with only 275 and higher and from what I know 275 isn't safe on 8.5 rims

Yea u gotta get something wider in rear if youre going to run volks/works. Get a 275 if that works on the stock rear wheel, and a 245/35 up front
